It's a bug in the Configure script. I've never bothered to track it down,
but have run into this problem for the past 6 months or longer.
In your Apache source tree, go to src/modules/auth_mysql, edit Makefile and
search for "LIBEXT". The bug is that Configure sets it to "LIBEXT=o" which
is wrong. You want to change it to "LIBEXT=a", then rerun make to get your
libauth_mysql.a
